Aww, how super-cute! I think he's definitely a boy as well (of course, all my electronics and most of my stuffed animals are male; male is the default unless the object is obviously female =P). Does he have an intended home, or is he going to stay with you?

Adrienne - He has no intended home right now, so I guess he's staying with me. My new neighbours have got kids who might like him, and any other little animals I might churn out, but I don't feel like I know them well enough yet to be giving them gifts. Still struggling with a name though; I looked up the scientific classification for octopus to try and come up with something nice and nerdy, but no luck yet.

Alice - I barely know any crochet; just enough to get the toy made. A lot of the toys make great learning projects because you don't really need to be all that precise. Can't wait to see what you wind up making!!
